Rif 121/S - CASA IN PIETRA CON DUE APPARTAMENTI, GIARDINO E GARAGE – IL TUO RIFUGIO NELLA NATURA

Monte Amiata rises directly above the area. The Orcia river valley lies nearby, and the upper Val d’Orcia begins just to the north-east. Much of the mountain is covered by the Monte Amiata beech and chestnut woods, with the wildlife and forest protection areas on the massif. The nearest ski slopes are on Monte Amiata around Prato delle Macinaie and Cantore, roughly 20–30 minutes by road depending on the hamlet. Montalcino is the nearest town of note, with a substantial historic centre and fortress, and Castiglione d’Orcia and Bagno Vignoni are close on the Val d’Orcia side. The Val d’Orcia UNESCO landscape is within the local area around the north-eastern side of the mountain. The area is known for olive oil from Seggiano and for chestnuts and former mercury-mining settlements on Monte Amiata.
